This is the Bachelets’ first release from this highly regarded Premier Cru, which is a continuation of Santenay’s Clos Rousseau. The family has owned vines here for decades, though the parcel was too small to vinify separately; this fruit was previously blended into the village wines. From 2022, they had a new fermage agreement in place, taking the total surface to just over half a hectare, so a single cuvée is now possible. The vineyard has a band of hard limestone under brown marl soils. It has 60% bunches this year, and zero sulphur was added until racking. Next-level for the appellation and another value wine.

Reviews

“The 2023 Maranges Les Clos Roussots 1er Cru contains around 60% whole bunch in order to reduce the tannic structure and render it more supple. It has an expressive bouquet with raspberry and bergamot scents, perhaps the most floral of the Domaine's reds. The palate is medium-bodied, fresh and vibrant with pliant tannins. A twist of sour cherry emerges toward the prolonged finish. This is just a delicious Maranges that certainly benefits from that more generous stem addition.”
